Abstract
An end body 34 is formed with a chamber 45 having a bevelled surface,62 and a cylindrical wall 60 in a portion thereof. A sleeve 46 is formed with an outward flange 48 at one end thereof and an annular bead 50 near another end 54 thereof. The sleeve 46 is formed with a press fit section 56 between the end 54 and the bead 50 thereof. The sleeve 46 is inserted axially into the chamber 45 of the end body 34 and the section 56 thereof is press fit into the cylindrical wall 60 of the end body with the bead 50 locating on the bevelled surface 62 of the end body. A valve 44 is threadedly attached to an end 58 of the end body 34 whereby a seal 64 of the valve engages the flange 48 of the sleeve 46. Water enters the end body 34 at the bottom thereof and flows into an axial passage 49 of the sleeve 46. If valve 44 is closed, the water will not flow any further. If the valve 44 is open, water will flow through the sleeve 46, the valve, the chamber 45 and out of the end body 34 to other facilities. The height of the end bodies 34 of different style assemblies could be different from each other. Rather than altering the length of the valve 44 to accommodate the different lengths of end bodies 34, the sleeve 46 is made in different lengths to accommodate the different lengths of end bodies.
Description
- This invention relates to a valve mount assembly and, in particular, to a mount which includes a spacer for locating a valve supported on the mount.
- In some faucet assemblies which are in use today, a plumbing structure referred to as an underbody is used to conduct water from inlet lines to a spout of an associated faucet. The underbody includes a pair of end bodies which are generally cylindrical and are spaced from each other. Each end body is formed with an axial passage which is open at opposite ends and with a lateral opening in a wall of the body. The underbody also includes a centre body which is located centrally between the pair of end bodies. The centre body is also formed with an axial passage which is open at one end and closed at the other end. A pair of lateral openings are formed in opposed sections of a wall of the centre body adjacent the closed end and in communication with the axial passage. A pair of copper tubes are connected between the single lateral opening of each of the end bodies and a respective one of the pair of lateral openings of the centre body.
- An incoming cold water line is connected to one of the open ends of a respective one of the end bodies and an incoming hot water line is connected one of the open ends of the other of the end bodies. A first valve is connected to the remaining open end of a respective end body and a second valve is connected to the remaining open end of the remaining end body. The valves are located within the passages of the respective end bodies so that water is precluded from flowing from the inlet lines to the spout if the valves are closed. Typically, valve closure elements of the valve are located in the passage slightly inboard of the end thereof which is connected to the inlet line. Therefore, while a portion of the valve extends outward from the respective open end of the end body to facilitate operational control thereof, the remainder of the valve extends into the passage nearly to the opposite end thereof to locate the valve closure elements adjacent the opposite end of the end body. When the valve is opened, water is allowed to flow from the inlet line, through the open valve and into the passage of the end body. The water continues to flow into and through the copper tube, the passage of the centre body and into and out of the spout.
- Usually, several different types of faucet assemblies are offered to customers to fulfil their decorative and practical needs. In some instances, the axial length of the end bodies of one faucet assembly is different from the axial lengths of the end bodies of each of several other faucet assemblies. Where different lengths of the end bodies are used with different types of faucet assemblies, valves of different lengths are required. Thus, several valves have to be manufactured to accommodate the different lengths of end bodies. This requires multiple manufacturing facilities, personnel and supplies to make valves which are of the same functional design except that their lengths are different. Once the valves of different lengths are made, they must be segregated at the manufacturing site for storage, distribution and assembly with an associated faucet assemblies. Also, where such valves of different lengths are offered for sale by wholesalers and retailers, segregated storage and shelf space is required.
- Thus, there is a need for faucet assembly designs which provide an economical and practical solution to the above-described problems and the attendant disadvantages due to the requirement of providing valves of different lengths.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a valve mount assembly which is economical to manufacture and practical to store and handle.
- It is a further object of the present invention to provide a valve mount assembly which can utilise valves of a common axial length even though the lengths of valve mounts of different valve mount assemblies are different.
- The invention provides a valve mount assembly which comprises a valve mount having a passage formed therein; structure formed on the valve mount at an end of the passage thereof for supporting a valve; an element located within the passage of the mount and having spaced first and second ends; the first end of the element being positioned within the passage and supported by the mount at a location spaced from the structure formed at the end of the mount; and the second end of the element being positioned adjacent the structure for engagement with at least a portion of the valve when the valve is supported by the structure.
- A preferred embodiment of a valve mount assembly according to the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
- Figure 1 is a partial sectional, partially exploded view showing an underbody of a plumbing assembly according to the invention;
- Figure 2 is a sectional view showing an end body with a spacer sleeve and valve in assembly therewith according to the invention;
- Figure 3 is a side view of a preferred embodiment of the spacer sleeve of Figures 1 and 2;
- Figure 4 is a perspective view showing the spacer sleeve of Figure 3;
- Figure 5 is a side view of a second embodiment of a spacer sleeve according to the invention; and
- Figure 6 is a side view of a third embodiment of a spacer sleeve according to the invention.

The underbody 31 and the spacer sleeves 46 form a valve mount assembly. - In the preferred embodiment as shown in Figures 2, 3 and 4, an annular rib or
bead 50 is formed on anouter surface 52 of thesleeve 46 near abottom end 54 thereof to define apress fit section 56 between the bottom end and the annular bead. When assembling thesleeve 46 within theend bodies bottom end 54 of the sleeve is inserted into anupper end 58 of thechamber 45 of each of theend bodies sleeve 46 is moved fully and freely into each of thechambers 45 until thepress fit section 56 begins to enter a space defined by a generallycylindrical wall 60 at the bottom of the chamber. The diameter of thewall 60 is slightly less than the diameter of thepress fit section 56. Thus, some force is required to urge thepress fit section 56 fully into the space defined bywall 60 whereby a press fit assembly is effected between the press fit section and the wall. Thebead 50 engages abevelled ramp 62 which is contiguous with thewall 60 to preclude further downward movement of thesleeve 46 withinchamber 45. In this manner, a secure, water tight fit is obtained. - The
valve 44 is inserted into and threadedly mounted in theupper end 58 of thechamber 45 of each of theend bodies seal 64 at the bottom of the valve engages in sealing fashion theflange 48 of thesleeve 46 as shown in Figure 2. - When water is supplied to the
